7 SEFTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 SEFTON CLOSE sales from November 2007 and August 2020 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the November 2007 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might 7 SEFTON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 17%, between August 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bromley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 SEFTON CLOSE of £685,000 on 26th August 2020. For the value to have increased from £685,000 to £801,602 over the five years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
